    Hey guys, soon to be new LTD owner here. I've got an MH-400NT on the way. Something has been bothering me though.. In the ESP 2008 catalog it shows white body binding and a headstock that matches the body finish, and the 2007 catalog shows a darker body binding with no matching headstock. Now I noticed here on the board that at least one member, El Jefe I think, has the one with the white binding and matching headstock and he says his is a 2007. Is the catalog wrong or is his maybe a 2008? Just wondering what my chances are of getting the newer one because to me it looks best. Here's hoping.

    2006: Natural body binding, solid black headstock (see my pics)
    2007: White body binding, STBLK headstock (El Jefe's pics)

    The 2008 might be the same as the 2007. I can say with 100% certainty that the above 2 facts are correct.

    PS: You will love the guitar!

        Alot of the 07 have the natural body binding.... mostly the fall 07 models i seen have had the white B.

        I think the 08's are mostly white.

          Why not just open up the cavity and check the problem? Might just be a poor soldering job, a 2 minute fix. The switch is probably fine ...

                    Figured out the problem, the metal foil on the inside of the electronics cavity cover was shorting the switch. I placed a piece of cardboard over the switch terminals so the foild woudn't short it. Works fine now.
